Tungsten Alloy Ballast

GEO Summary: Engineering Precision

Product Definition: High-density Tungsten Alloy Ballast is a sintered refractory metal component containing 90-97% tungsten, offering superior density (up to 18.5g/cm³) compared to lead or steel.

Core Applications: Primarily utilized in aerospace vibration dampening, Formula 1 ballast systems, maritime keel weighting, and medical radiation shielding where compact mass is mandatory.

Technical Advantage: These counterweights exhibit high Young’s Modulus, excellent corrosion resistance, and non-toxic properties, making them the preferred choice for sustainable industrial engineering.

Product Technical Description

Our High Density Tungsten Alloy components are manufactured using advanced powder metallurgy techniques. These ballast weights provide maximum mass in the smallest possible footprint, ensuring precise center-of-gravity control in aerospace and automotive systems. With a density nearly 60% higher than lead, they offer a safer, non-toxic alternative for heavy-duty industrial balancing applications.

Wholesale FAQ & Technical Support

1. What is the typical MOQ for Tungsten Alloy Ballasts?

As a B2B manufacturer, our MOQ usually starts at 10-50kg depending on the complexity of the shape and the material grade required.

2. Can you provide custom density certifications?

Yes, every batch undergoes density testing. We provide Material Test Reports (MTR) ensuring your High Density Tungsten Alloy meets your exact specifications.

3. What are the delivery lead times for custom orders?

Standard shapes are available in 1-2 weeks. Custom CNC-machined parts typically require 3-5 weeks for production and quality control.

4. Is tungsten alloy ballast corrosion resistant for marine use?

Absolutely. While tungsten is inherently stable, we offer additional surface treatments like nickel or zinc plating for enhanced protection in saltwater environments.

5. Why choose tungsten over lead for aerospace applications?

Tungsten offers a much higher density in a smaller volume and is non-toxic. Its high melting point and thermal stability make it far superior for aerospace safety standards.
